Synopsis

What is the menopause and how long does it last? What is HRT and what are its effects? What are the chances of developing osteoporosis or heart disease? These are questions which are addressed in this book, which also emphasizes that the menopause is not just about physical changes, but can be an opportunity to pause for thought, to think about oneself and one's lifestyle, and a time to make choices and plans for a brighter future. The book begins with a detailed explanation of the menopause, the menstrual and hormonal symptoms and their causes, and how to cope with them. Related health-risks and emotional problems are discussed, with advice on attitudes and expectations. Myra Hunter is a clinical psychologist, and Jean Coope a GP who has specialized in HRT and all aspects of the menopause for 20 years.
